Question

Which of the following represents the sample space for flipping two coins?

Answer 1

C.  { HH, HT , TH, TT}

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample Space  of any event E is the set of all possible outcomes whenever  that event takes place.

Here, event E : Tossing 2 coins

Now, as we know, when an unbiased coin is tossed,

The total outcomes  = {Head, Tail}

So, when two coins are flipped, the total outcomes are  2 x 2  = 4.

Sample space   =  { Head Head, Head Tail, Tail Head, Tail Tail}

or, S  = { HH, HT , TH, TT}
